When we first started our training journey together I used to admire photos of handlers and their dogs heeling perfectly in sync together and hoped that we could do that together one day.

Now I admire you, my boy 🫶

Thank you for capturing a special moment

That’s a wrap! 🎁

Final day of work completed before Christmas and now it’s time to rest and spend time with my family and my dogs🎄

Thank you to all of my wonderful clients for your support this year. Your generosity with cards and gifts has really blown me away 🥹

Here’s to a week of food, drink and feet up! 🥂

I often get asked how I achieve obedience with my dogs and honestly, it starts with relationship. I spend time creating a bond with my dogs so that they WANT to be with me. Our interactions are not forced and I’m not begging for their attention.

Often I see people trying to ask things from their dog and the dog has zero interest in even paying any attention to them.

Start tapping into what makes your dog tick. Play with them. Be interactive. Be present with them and the rest will come a whole lot easier 🫶

Tomorrow’s pack walk due to be at Felbrigg Hall is cancelled due to the storm. Everyone booked on will be emailed.

I’m planning on 121s still going ahead and I’ll assess how bad it is in the morning.

Any issues/concerns, send me a message 🙏🤗

Welcome 👋

Since we’ve had some new followers, it seems like a good time to do some very overdue, proper introductions.

I’m Alannah, the owner and founder of Akila k9 Training, Est. 2022. Following sudden, tragic loss of a dog, it inspired me to explore avenues of training I’d never considered before. Over the last few years I’ve followed & shadowed trainers from different backgrounds with different methodologies and ideologies, taking from them information that I liked and some that I didn’t, to create my own idea of what dog training is.

There is no rule book, no one method that will always work, no right or wrong. I’ve come to learn that great training comes from understanding and training the dog in front of you. Great training is built on great foundations and relationship between dog and handler.

In 2021, Nala my long haired GSD came along and I was able to raise her into the stable, gentle girl she is today. You’ll often see her by my side and stooging during training sessions.

In 2023, along came Nero, now 15 months. Nero is my young sport prospect, entering into the sport of PSA. He’s already taught me so much and I’ve gained a huge amount of knowledge into the working dog world. You’ll also often find Nero helping to stooge during training sessions.

If you’re interested in booking any services, get in touch!

A post for no other reason than to unapologetically appreciate my dogs 🫶

“You mess with her, you mess with us,” - Nala and Nero, probably.

We’re taking a break!

We have made the decision to go full on Glastonbury and take a ‘fallow’ year from WLTDO in 2025 😎🤘

Behind the scenes, our team work tirelessly alongside their day jobs and businesses to bring you what we hope is always a fantastic family day out. We’ve had THE BEST time bringing you all WLTDO for the past two years, however, we are taking a year to rest and recuperate from the planning and management.

We’ll see you BIGGER and BETTER in 2026! 🐾🍔🍟🍦🍺
